Aquascaping is a form of art in your fishtank. You carefully arrange gravel, soil, plants, and just about anything that can go into a fish tank in such a way that your aquarium becomes a magnificent piece of eyecandy. Betta fish absolutly love to live in aquariums with live plants, not to mention how good it is for your tank in general. Here are a few ideas for you. The following designs are by Takashi Amano and you can find more of his work here.
In my last post I talked about giving your fish a three room condo – allowing him to swim from one bowl to another. How about letting your betta swim from one room in your house to another room! Building a fish highway will allow you to do this. The one pictured below is made of acrylic plastic. It goes from one tank in the room all the way up to the ceiling and then into another tank on the other side of the room. Check out fishighway.com for more information and more pictures.
If you’ve been reading this blog then you know I’ve mentioned a couple of times that your Betta fish wants more space. A simple way to do this is to have three interconnected fish bowls. I like to refer to them as rooms: a bedroom, a living room, and a bathroom. Can’t blow glass? Buy it here for $85.
Don’t really put them in your sink! That would not be good. But here is an amazing sink design that has a fish tank built into the actual sink. I will cost you about $4,700 before shipping, but can you really put a price on being able to keep fish in your sink?
Betta Fish are what I blog about.
